Our weekly perusal around the Interwebz for water cooler fodder. ESPN: 5th The Broncos have silenced more doubters each week to the point where far fewer are around. CBS: 5th Hard to believe they are here. But I believe now. Just a warning: Be careful Monday at San Diego. That could be an ambush. The […]

Our weekly perusal around the Interwebz for water cooler fodder. ESPN: 8th Mike Nolan’s defense has been stingy with points and is starting to get attention for a major turnaround. BroncoTalk: 6th Glaring Stat: Denver has six interceptions on the season — each pick by a different player.

Our weekly perusal around the Net for water cooler fodder. ESPN: 13th A great start against lightweights will now be measured against a much tougher five-pack. BroncoTalk: 8th Glaring stat: Eddie Royal only has six receptions for 42 yards in these first three games. I know the ball has been spread around a lot, but […]

Is it that time of the year already (meaningless power rankings time)? According to Peter King of Sports Illustrated, yes, in fact, it is. [Sports Illustrated] The best thing Woody Paige has written in recent memory. [Denver Post] I heartily disagree with this article by Bernie Linicome saying Jay Cutler will be judged by his […]

The Power Rankings are back after a week off, and changes are in the midst. The Broncos bounce back a bit; the Giants move up huge; the top 3 remain unchanged, as do most of the bottom feeders. 1. Indianapolis Colts (6-0) | PREVIOUS: 1 The Colts haven’t lost a game since December, yet no […]

No more pictures for these, or descriptions for the top 10… at least not this week. Simplifying it to save myself some time. I will talk about one team in particular though – the Jacksonville Jaguars. They moved up huge, from 12 to 4, all in one week when I came to a simple realization […]

1. Indianapolis Colts (4-0) | PREVIOUS: 1 I think the entire world has the Colts-Patriots game circled on their calendars. 2. New England Patriots (4-0) | PREVIOUS: 2 Only 34 points Patriots? Embarrassing. 3. Dallas Cowboys (4-0) | PREVIOUS:4 I would put these three a tier above everyone else. 4. Green Bay Packers (4-0) | […]

1. Indianapolis Colts (3-0) | PREVIOUS: 1 I really, really hate these guys. Let’s beat ’em for once, eh Broncos? 2. New England Patriots (3-0) | PREVIOUS: 2 38-14. 38-14. 38-7. These guys need to slow down. 3. Pittsburgh Steelers (3-0) | PREVIOUS: 3 I don’t think the Steelers are as good as some, it […]

What a wild and wacky week 2 in the NFL. I knew I wouldn’t repeat my 13-3 from week 1, and I was right, losing twice as many picks and going 10-6 (Cleveland?! Tampa Bay?! Washington?!). Now my season record is 23-9, and I’m 2-1 in picks against the spread. 1. Indianapolis Colts (2-0) | […]
I admit it. I obsess on the power rankings. I particularly obsess on the Football Outsiders DVOA rankings, which I find to be more interesting than some writer’s opinion ranking, but I like the writer’s opinions too (mostly because most writers have a higher opinion of the Broncos, at least last year, than DVOA. Though […]
